• Lieutenant Ned Nichols : We've done everything together, haven't we? Polo, hunting, same regiment... and now we're in love together.

  Captain Geoffrey 'Geoff' Roberts : For old times' sake, I propose the old toast- to war, whiskey and women.

  Lieutenant Ned Nichols : Let's make it "to ladies." Better still, let's make it "your lady and my lady."

  Captain Geoffrey 'Geoff' Roberts : To your lady, and my lady.

  [they touch glasses and drink] 

• Lieutenant Ned Nichols : Oh, listen Geoff, I've... I've been a fool. An insane fool!

  Captain Geoffrey 'Geoff' Roberts : We've both been fools, Ned- for thinking that friendship between two men could be bigger than a woman's love. It isn't, it never is, and it shouldn't be.
